⚾ 🥎 Baseball Falls to No. 3 Ole Miss in Pair of Close Games on Friday: GM3~ Sat @ 1CT

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

Game 1 is still going on... UA held a 3-1 lead and imploded in the 9th, now down 8-3, Ole Miss still batting. Would suck to let this one get away after having that lead... Hindsight being what it is, would have been nice to let Chase Lee start the 9th instead of saving him.

Game 2 starts at 6.

Well, Payton Wilson just hit a 3 run HR in the bottom of the 9th... down 9-6 now... maybe some hope? At least they didn't fold up if nothing else...

Game 2 underway... not on ESPNU like I thought I had seen (maybe that's for tomorrow's game). Currently bottom 3rd, 0-0. Dylan Smith on the mound for Bama, TJ Reeves back in the lineup from his hand injury a couple weeks ago.

I never went to a baseball game when I was on school. This is our first time in the Joe. This is a GREAT facility!

This weird shoulder bounce that the OM pitcher does before every pitch is irritating as shit.

He has gotten himself out of two big jams in the 6th and now 7th.

Dylan Smith pitched a great game.

Yep, a shame he can't get some run support...

I don't know what else Peyton Wilson can do besides hit a HR. He has 3 of the 4 Bama hits...And keeps getting left on base.

It feels like Williamson is about to heat up. And hopefully Reeves can get back into the groove quickly. They are going to have to find a way to get more runs and certainly need to cut down on the strikeouts.

For those wondering, Ole Miss won game 2, 2-0.

Sweep complete... Ole Miss wins 11-6. Good news? Peyton Wilson is still red hot at the plate (4-5 with a HR). That's about it. The Tide was without 2 weekend starters (and possibly without Chase Lee) for the series. Not ideal. With the depleted staff, Bohannon turned to Bryce Eblin, a SS, to pitch the 9th.

Up next, series vs. the Vols at home.

I guess those announcers thought Eblin should have used a pitcher's glove since they had a small laugh about the SS glove, his glove, that he was using.

Still early in the year but the HC SEC record since he signed the papers it bad.
